Computer Vision Engineer, Aerial Autonomy

AITAN is building the operating platform for multi-drone warfare, a battle-proven system that augments, deploys, and orchestrates autonomous drone fleets across any mission, any environment, and any vendor. With over 500,000 hours of frontline operational use and TRL-9 validation, our software is not a prototype. It runs in combat, every day, shaping outcomes in some of the most contested and complex environments on earth.

We unify drone control, edge-AI processing, and mission execution into a single operational loop, from detection to decision to strike. Our platform gives a single operator the ability to command and coordinate an entire fleet in real time: persistent aerial surveillance, automated target recognition, shared tactical picture, and seamless handoff from ISR to kinetic response, without manual delay.

We are expanding our US engineering team in the New York metropolitan area. Our office is easily accessible from New York City. If you want to work on technology that matters, not in a lab, but validated in the field, this is the role for you.

We are looking for an exceptional Computer Vision Engineer to join our research team and own the perception layer that powers our autonomous aerial systems. You will design and build the systems that give our drones and the operators behind them a real-time, shared understanding of the operational environment. Your algorithms will run at the edge, in contested airspace, with real operational stakes.

You will take perception capabilities from concept and simulation through live flight experiments to production deployment, iterating rapidly on real-world flight data and operational edge cases. The quality of your work directly determines what warfighters can see, understand, and act on.

Design, implement, and continuously improve vision-based situational awareness systems that give aircraft and ground operators a unified, real-time understanding of the operational environment
